iPad Storage

[rjf2019]

We have bought a few of the 15 capacity version of these and been pleased with them. I've just gone to order two more and been told they've been discontinued though.

Does anyone have a similar suggestion? Ideally a cabinet rather than a trolley, and like the idea of being able to use our own padlock as it means we can use a combination code and not worry about losing keys. I have had trouble with locks on trolleys before, so atleast the padlock can be replaced. Shame we can get more of the same units.

 

​Edit​ Also really like the baskets as it makes them easy to give out for the children.

We've got loads of trolleys from this company, all have been great, haven't tried the cabinets though https://www.zioxi.com/product/ipad-charging-cabinet-secure-storage/

We've gone with some Zioxi as well: https://www.zioxi.com/product/ipad-charging-station-zioxi/

Solid furniture. Just wasn't keen on the included power strips, which seemed to be real cheapies that they'd just drilled screws through into the back of the cupboard. Cheap and easy to replace with the power solution of your choice, though.

They make a basket version as well: https://www.zioxi.com/product/ipad-charging-station-basket-cupboard/

I agree about the power strips on the Zioxi's. I've had to repair the (non-moulded) plug on several occasions after people have tried to move the trolley before unplugging it from the mains. The internal plug to the USB blocks is moulded, though, so I've just fed it out of the back of the trolley, bypassing the power strip entirely.

+1 for Zioxi, had the ipad and laptop trolleys for years and still going strong, only one issue but is more of our school design fault is the metal carpet strips in the doors, they stop the trolleys dead and have to be lifted up to go over them, I dont mind but sometimes forget and it has gave me wrist ache on many occasions.

Thanks for all of the Zioxi recommendations. I went ahead and ordered a Chromebook trolley, x10 iPad wall cabinet and x16 iPad floor standing cabinet. Went for the versions with digital code locks, as it's always a bit of hassle looking after all of the keys.

 

The help is well appreciated.

Just to mention, they have "smart" versions of the cabs too which we've purchased. Linking to a cloud system from zioxi with eco charge times and analysis of number of ipads connected. Great company.

How about these, from the same company?

They're very compact as compared to other solutions. No basket though.
